1890 John Milton Paradise Lost
Gustave Dore Gallery Illustrated FOLIO Literature
“The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heav’n of hell, a
hell of heav’n.”
– Milton, ‘Paradise Lost’
“When Cassell saw the Dore Bible, they
personally approached Dore to do Milton” (Malan, Gustav Dore). Dore established himself as a prolific 19th-century
illustrated and artist and the demand for his work was escalating. Thus, this
later undated edition is valuable and desirable much like many of the other
titles Dore illustrated.
“Gustave Dore, it has always seemed to me, was a motion-picture art
director born before his time.” (Harryhausen)
This fine Cassell
edition of Milton’s ‘Paradise Lost’ contains 48 full page
illustrations by Dore!
